In which condition can refined sugar be called an example of empty calories?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: When it gives energy but very few other nutrients

Empty calories are calories supplied by foods that provide energy but little protein, fibre, vitamins, or minerals. Refined sugar is mainly a source of carbohydrate energy and contributes very few protective nutrients. It is therefore described as an empty-calorie food when considered in isolation. The other options incorrectly describe nutrients that refined sugar does not supply in meaningful amounts.
